Apps eclipse adt problem. unable to view newly created project in file explorer

[parthpatel]

Hi guys,

I am new to android development and having a bit of problem installing eclipse/adt and running it.

I installed all version of eclipse and on top of that latest adt plugin.
Then, I configured eclipse for adt installation directory, created an avd virtual machine.

When I create a new project, corresponding directory gets created in the workspace directory but the project does not show up any where on file explorer.

Moreover, The Project -> open project menu item is grayed out. I tried switching workspaces, importing projects. Nothing seems to work.

My PC conf:

Hp dv9000
Vista, tried eclipse ganymade sr2, ganymade, europa.
2.4 ghz intel core 2 duo
3 gb ram


Any ideas.

Thanks,
Parth

One more thing, once I hit finish button after creating a new project and filling up all the details the Android DDMS perspective disappears and eclipse resets to the start page.
